Food truck hire in East Lockinge, served fresh
The truck or trailer is a working kitchen on wheels, so your venue doesn’t need a kitchen. We need a level spot, safe access and the venue’s permission, with power and water confirmed per booking. On the menu are vegan tacos, fresh salsas and guacamole and quesadillas, which works well for garden parties and client events and product launches.
In a hamlet or village like East Lockinge, our truck or trailer can serve a private party or a team day in a field or garden. Guests queue at the hatch, so have some cover ready in case of rain. You’ll know what’s included before booking: the menu, the service time and any extras you choose.

Hosting a party at home? Send a picture of the space and tell us about access, and we’ll tell you honestly whether a truck or trailer will fit.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
You can host your own taco night for a crowd, but it takes planning. Fillings need slow cooking, tortillas need warming as you go, and salsas need making. Read our guide to taco bars.
Running your own drinks table is one option, but someone still has to mix, pour and keep an eye on it all evening. Our margarita bar guide has tips.

Your questions about food truck hire in East Lockinge
Could we book your food truck for a private event in East Lockinge?
Yes, subject to the date and access for the truck or trailer. Let us know about access and where we’d park.
Do you cater in villages like East Lockinge?
Yes. Villages and hamlets are part of our area, and the main thing is access: tell us about the lane, the gate and the ground.
Can you run a bar?
Yes, we offer a Mexican drinks bar, serving margaritas, Mexican beer, aguas frescas such as hibiscus and horchata, and soft drinks. Alcohol at an event may need a licence, such as a premises licence or a Temporary Event Notice, so we’ll go through the licensing with you.
Do you cover East Lockinge?
Yes. We cover London and the South East, including East Lockinge and the rest of Oxfordshire. For a quote, tell us about it on our contact page.
Is private hire the same as trading at a festival?
At a private hire, we serve your guests and nobody else, with a menu and timings you agree with us. Festival and market trading is open to the public.
Can you plan for allergies?
Yes. Tell us about allergies when you book. UK law requires caterers to provide information on 14 allergens, and we do that for every dish (Food Standards Agency guidance). For severe allergies, please talk to us first.
What do you need at the venue?
Tell us where you’d like the truck, and we’ll check it works. Our guide to space and power has more.
How spicy is the food?
We can keep it mild, and hotter salsas go on the side for guests who like heat.
Why choose food truck hire in East Lockinge?
A DIY barbecue keeps a host at the grill. With a hired truck, we do the cooking. There’s no one-size-fits-all price for food truck hire. A short lunch service for a team is a different job from a full wedding day. Contact us for a quote.

How it works
We get there well before you want to serve, then set up and prepare everything. When service opens, guests come up to the hatch or serving table. At midsummer, it stays light in East Lockinge until about 9:25pm, while late September brings sunset forward to around 7:10pm. In December it is dark by about 4:00pm, so the queue by the hatch needs lighting.
- Ask us whether your date is available.
- You get a menu for the hatch and a quote.
- We confirm the parking spot and the route in.
- On the day, guests order at the hatch and we cook to order.
- We pack down and drive away when service ends.
How to prepare
- Ask the venue about power and water
- Name one person we can ask on the day
- Get the venue’s permission for us to park and serve
How to get a price
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote: the venue, the timings, food or drinks or both, and the access. To send your details, tell us about it on our contact page.
